Definitions

  • the present invention is directed to a cu p su pport for hold ing a cu p, and to a dispensing device with a cup support.
  • the cup support of the invention is of simple mechanical structure, can be easily dismantled from the dispensing device for cleaning purposes, and can hold suitable cups securely and in a way that the dispensing device can effectively dissolve a food ingredient in the cup.
  • Some state of the art dispensing devices mix a food ingredient, e.g. a soluble powder or liquid concentrate, with a diluent, e.g. water or milk, directly in a drinking cup instead of a mixing chamber.
  • a food ingredient e.g. a soluble powder or liquid concentrate
  • a diluent e.g. water or milk
  • the food ingredients are usually first metered by a dosing device, and are then delivered to the drinking cup.
  • the dispensing device is capable of dispensing different kinds of beverages or liquid food mixtures, it can be adapted to move the drinking cup under the desired food ingredient container and then move the drinking cup to a dilution position where the diluent is injected into the drinking cup.
  • a drinking cup is placed on a cup support that moves the cup to at least one food ingredient container, and then moves the cup to a dilution position.
  • the diluent can be injected in the form of at least one diluent jet.
  • a cup can be rotated during the injection of a diluent, in order to achieve an even more effective dissolution of the food ingredient. It has been shown that an effective dissolution of the food ingredient depends strongly on the impact position of diluent jets on the cup.
  • a cup support can be easily dismantled for cleaning, and that the cup support is itself easy to clean, preferably in a dish washer.
  • cup supports disclosed in the above-mentioned prior art documents present at least one of the following drawbacks :
  • cup supports are mechanically complex, and thus are costly to produce and difficult to clean.
  • the cup supports do not enable movement of a cup in different directions, i.e. they only hold the cup.
  • the cup supports hold the cup via its upper edge, which makes the dissolution of food ingredients with diluent jets too difficult to implement and control.
  • the cup supports accept every type of cup regardless of its diameter, which makes it hard to align the diluent jets so that they impact onto specific areas of the walls of the cup.
  • the present invention aims at overcoming the above-mentioned drawbacks, and thus generally aims at improving the existing state of the art.
  • an aim of the present invention is to well support a cup in a cup support, so that it cannot fall out during its movement in a dispensing device.
  • a further aim of the present invention is to enable the use of differently sized drinking cups in connection with a single cup support (at least two supported cup sizes are desired).
  • a further aim of the present invention is to control the size of the cups that are used with the dispensing machine, since injection means for diluents jets are typically configured only for specific cup sizes. In particular, since the diluent jets must preferably impact the sidewall of the cups at a specific location.
  • a further aim of the present invention is to enable movement of a cup support in horizontal and vertical direction, and to enable rotation on itself.
  • a further aim of the present invention is to hold a cup in a way that it can be positioned appropriately in respect to diluent jets.
  • a further aim of the present invention is to design a cup support that can be easily dismantled from a dispensing device for cleaning purposes, and is itself easy to clean.
  • the present invention is therefore directed to a cup support for holding a cup in a dispensing device, the cup support comprising :
  • At least one cup holding space is formed between an inner sidewall of the at least one outer support structure and an outer sidewall of the at least one inner support structure.
  • the cup support is of simple mechanical structure. Due to the cup holding space, a cup can be held securely. At least two different cup sizes can be held by the cup support, namely one cup size, for which a cup is retained by leaning on the inner sidewall of the at least one outer support structure, and another cup size, for which a cup is retained by leaning on the outer sidewall of the at least one inner support structure.
  • the cup support can further be manufactured from a single piece, which significantly reduces its production costs, and can be made of a material, which is easy to clean, like a dish washer resistant plastic.
  • the cup support could further be provided with a layer that rejects dirt and/or liquids.
  • the cup support is adapted to hold cups from the bottom, in particular when a specifically suited cup is used.
  • the at least one outer support structure is a ring-shaped wall surrounding the base.
  • the ring- shaped wall stabilizes the cup in all directions when it is held by the cup support.
  • the ring- shaped wall can be made rotationally symmetric, so that it does not matter how (in which orientation) the cup is inserted into the cup support, or how (in which orientation) the cup support is disposed in a dispensing device.
  • the outer wall can be formed integrally with the base, e.g. by forming a bulge on outer periphery or circumference of the base.
  • the at least one inner support structure comprises more than one fin- shaped element with a leading edge as the outer sidewall of the at least one fin-shaped element.
  • the cup support comprises at least 3 fin-shaped elements, preferably 5.
  • the base has a circular shape, and the fin-shaped elements are disposed radially, and preferably equally, on the first surface of the base.
  • the radial arrangement allows multiple fin-shaped elements to form a cup holding space that resembles an interrupted ring- shaped cup holding space. A round cup with a circumferential flange at its bottom can be fitted perfectly. Further, the radial arrangement of the fin-shaped elements allows any spilled liquid to be drained towards the center of the base.
  • the liquid can be removed by a hole or the like, as shown below.
  • the fin-shaped elements consume very little material but are nevertheless very stable.
  • the tail of the fin- shaped elements curves downward to the centre of the base.
  • the curved tail is well suited to enable the correct positioning of the cup, in particular the horizontal positioning of the cup bottom. Actually if the consumer doesn't exactly centre the cup on the cup support then the curved tails of the fin-shaped elements immediately make the cup falls so that the consumer notices that the cup is not supported. Then the consumer is forced to correctly position the cup in the cup holder : correct positioning guarantees that the cup bottom is horizontal and consequently that the cup is well positioned with the dispenser means for preparing the beverage.
  • the base comprises at least one hole at its center, and the base is funnel- shaped with the funnel opening being the hole.
  • the hole serves to remove liquid from the cup support, and can thus prevent that liquid starts to collect in the cup support and may damage the cup.
  • the funnel-shaped base supports the drainage of liquid to the center hole. Particularly in combination with the above-mentioned radial arrangement of the fin-shaped elements, liquid can effectively be guided towards the hole in the cup support.
  • the at least one inner support structure is designed such that the inner sidewall of the at least one outer support structure presents a notch.
  • a further size of cup with different, but well determined diameter can be held securely by the cup support.
  • the level of the first surface of the base is higher in each cup holding space than outside of each cup holding space.
  • the higher level in the cup holding space has the effect that the cup does not touch directly onto the first surface of the base. Therefore, any liquid that potentially might collect in the cup support does not come into contact with the cup. Thereby, damage caused by soaking the cup can be prevented.
  • the bridge between the inner support structure and the outer support structure that causes the higher level in the cup holding space also increases the structural stability of the cup support as a whole.
  • a plug element extends from a second surface of the base, wherein the second surface is opposite to the first surface of the base, and wherein the plug element comprises at least one protrusion.
  • the plug element can be used to insert the cup support into holding means of a dispensing device, as will be explained below.
  • the protrusion can further function to stabilize the insertion of the cup support into a dispensing device.
  • the plug element can further be used as a drain pipe, if it is constructed to be hollow, and if its opening is connected to or is the hole in the surface of the base.
  • the cup support is designed to be preferably used with a specifically designed cup.
  • the specifically designed cup has a circumferential flange at its bottom.
  • the circumferential flange has a diameter so that it fits into at least one cup holding space of the cup support when put centered onto the cup support. The cup can thus be inserted easily and is held securely.
  • the present invention is further directed to a dispensing device for preparing a beverage in a cup, wherein the dispensing device comprises :
  • the dispensing device comprises a sensor for identifying the size of the cup placed in the cup support and the motor for vertically moving the cup support or the injection means is adapted to relatively position the cup support and the injection means according to the size of the cup.
  • the senor is operable to sense the upper edge of the cup placed in the cup support.
  • the sensor can be an optical sensor configured for sending a light beam and for receiving the beam reflected on the cup edge. If the dispenser is configured for preparing beverages in two cups of different sizes, the sensor is configured for sending two beams at two different heights corresponding to the heights of the two cups. Then the dispensing device can move the cup support or the injection means to a specific vertical position one relative to the other so that the food ingredient in the cup is dissolved by the diluent very quickly and most effectively. The beverage or food production of the dispensing device can thus be fastened and improved.
  • the dispensing device can comprise holding means for receiving the cup support, the holding means being designed to transfer vertical movement to the cup support.
  • the holding means can also be designed to transfer horizontal movement and/or rotation movement to the cup support.
  • the holding means comprises a hole for receiving the plug element that extends from the second surface of the base of the cup support, and the plug element and the holding means present cooperating elements for fixing the plug element to the holding means.
  • the cooperating elements can comprise a protrusion in the plug element and a notch in the holding means for receiving the protrusion of the plug element.
  • the present invention is further directed to a process for preparing a beverage with a dispensing device such as described above comprising at least the following steps :
  • the cup support and the dispensing device can improve the existing state of the art, and can provide a solution wherein the cup support can be easily dismantled and cleaned, and wherein the dissolution of a food ingredient by diluent jets can be carried out most effectively.

  • a hole 8 or multiple holes 8 can be located, which can have a function to drain away liquid that collects on the upper surface of the base 4.
  • the base 4 can have extra guiding structures or channels (not shown) that further support the drainage of the liquid.
  • the base 4 can be coated with a liquid rejecting layer (not shown), for example a water repellant layer, in order to further support the removal of liquid, and to prevent the contamination of the first upper surface of the base 4.

  • Elements of the cup support 1 that are in this application referred to with the word “outer” are to be understood to be positioned closer to the periphery of the base 4 than elements that are referred to with the word “inner”, which are understood to be positioned closer to the center of the base 4.
  • the cup support 1 further comprises at least one outer support structure 5 that is positioned on the outer periphery of the base 4.
  • the outer support structure can for example be a ring-shaped wall 5 surrounding the base 4 as shown in Figure 1 .

  • the dispenser initiates the preparation of a beverage for a big size cup : e.g. a specific big amount of beverage powder is introduced in the cup and then at least one diluent jet is introduced in the cup.
  • Figures 7a and 7b illustrate the processing of placing a cup and preparing a beverage with a dispenser of the present invention using a small size cup 2c.
  • the cup 2c is placed on the cup support and its bottom flange leans on the outer sidewall 6a of the inner support structure 6 of the cup support.
  • the sensor 1 1 analyses the size of the cup by sending the two optical beams 10a, 10b at their different heights and analyzing the reflected beams on the cup wall.
  • Figure 7a the sensor analyses that the cup is a small size cup because only the lower beam is reflected by the cup wall .
  • the dispenser initiates the preparation of a beverage for a small size cup : e.g. a specific small amount of beverage powder is introduced in the cup.
  • the dispenser moves up the cup support 1 - as indicated by the arrow B - so that the cup 2c is positioned nearer from the injection means and so that the diluent jet 17 can hit the cup sidewall according to the angle enabling the most effective dissolution such as for the big cup 2a.
  • the dispensing device comprises a motor for vertically moving the holding means.
  • the dispensing device is tuned for delivering beverages in a specific set of cups differing by their bottom diameters and their height, the larger diameter, the higher the cup height. Consequently the sensor can identify the volume of beverage to produce by the height sensed by the sensor and the position of the cup relative to the injection means can be set for an optimal dissolution.
  • the senor is an optical beam yet any other sensor able to detect the upper edge of the cup could be used.
  • FIG. 6a, 6b, 7a and 7b illustrate a sensor 1 1 detecting two sizes of cup
  • the dispenser of the invention can also detect three sizes of cups.
  • the sensor comprises three optical beams positioned at three different heights each corresponding to the height of one of the three cups that can be used with the dispenser. The sensor beams are positioned to evaluate the height of the cup when the cup is placed in the dispenser by the customer the cup support being at rest.
  • the injection means 16 deliver at least 4 diluent jets each of them impacting onto a defined position of the sidewall of the cup 2 and the cup 2 is rotated around its symmetry axis A during the injection of the jets, so that a most effective dissolution of the food ingredient in the cup 2 can occur.
  • at least 4 diluent jets impact the cup sidewall according to the process described in WO 2010/034722.
  • the dispensing device can comprise a plurality of ingredient containers under or to which a cup 2 held in the cup support 1 can be moved. Then the food ingredient can be released or dosed into the cup 2.
  • the dispensing device can comprise a motor for horizontally moving the holding means.
  • the food ingredient can also be in the cup 2 beforehand, and only a diluent needs to be added to the cup 2.
  • the dispensing device 10 then does not necessarily require food ingredient containers.
  • the different movements of the cup support 1 can be implemented by motors for vertical, horizontal or rotational movement connected to the holding means 12.
  • motors for vertical, horizontal or rotational movement connected to the holding means 12.
  • belts or gears can transfer the rotation of the motor shafts in rotational or linear movements of the holding means.
  • the motor(s) of the dispenser can be conventional motors that are electrically or mechanically activated, e.g. electro-motors.
  • the invention presents the advantage of proposing a cup support of simple mechanical structure that can be easily dismantled from the dispensing device for cleaning purposes.
  • cup support can support different cups of different diameters and sizes and secure them during the movement of the cup support.
  • the dispensing device can guarantee that at least one diluent jet provided by injecting means is correctly oriented whatever the size of the cup such that it impacts a predetermined position on e.g. a sidewall of the cup.
  • the correct orientation of the jet achieves an effective dissolution of food ingredient in the cup.

Abstract

La présente invention porte sur un support de tasse et sur un dispositif de distribution qui utilise un support de tasse. Le support de tasse est apte à supporter au moins des tasses de deux diamètres et tailles différents. Le support de tasse et le dispositif de distribution sont aptes à détecter le diamètre et la taille de la tasse, et à permettre que, quand un jet de diluant est injecté dans la tasse, le jet est orienté de façon à heurter une position prédéterminée sur une paroi latérale de la tasse. L'orientation du jet produit une dissolution efficace d'un ingrédient alimentaire dans la tasse par le diluant injecté. Le dispositif de distribution est conçu de façon à déplacer le support de tasse dans une direction horizontale et verticale, de façon à faire tourner le support de tasse. Le support de tasses n'est pas directement actionné, mais il est disposé dans des moyens de support mobiles et rotatifs, à partir desquels il peut être facilement démonté pour être nettoyé. Le support de tasse comprend un élément de bouchon comprenant une saillie. Le dispositif de distribution comprend un moteur pour déplacer verticalement le support de tasse ou les moyens d'injection.
